< Zaburi 115 >

1 Sio kwetu, Yahwe, sio kwetu, bali kwa jina lako ulete heshima, kwa ajili ya uaminifu wa agano lako na uaminifu wako.
μὴ ἡμῖν κύριε μὴ ἡμῖν ἀλλ’ ἢ τῷ ὀνόματί σου δὸς δόξαν ἐπὶ τῷ ἐλέει σου καὶ τῇ ἀληθείᾳ σου
2 Kwa nini mataifa yalazimike kusema, “Yuko wapi Mungu wako?”
μήποτε εἴπωσιν τὰ ἔθνη ποῦ ἐστιν ὁ θεὸς αὐτῶν
3 Mungu wetu aliye mbinguni; hufanya chochote apendacho.
ὁ δὲ θεὸς ἡμῶν ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ ἄνω ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς καὶ ἐν τῇ γῇ πάντα ὅσα ἠθέλησεν ἐποίησεν
4 Sanamu za mataifa ni fedha na dhahabu, kazi ya mikono ya wanadamu.
τὰ εἴδωλα τῶν ἐθνῶν ἀργύριον καὶ χρυσίον ἔργα χειρῶν ἀνθρώπων
5 Sanamu hizo zina vinywa, lakini haziongei; zina macho, lakini hazioni;
στόμα ἔχουσιν καὶ οὐ λαλήσουσιν ὀφθαλμοὺς ἔχουσιν καὶ οὐκ ὄψονται
6 zina masikio, lakini hazisikii; zina pua lakini hazinusi.
ὦτα ἔχουσιν καὶ οὐκ ἀκούσονται ῥῖνας ἔχουσιν καὶ οὐκ ὀσφρανθήσονται
7 Sanamu hizo zina mikono, lakini hazishiki; zina miguu, lakini haziwezi kutembea; wala haziongei kutoka viywani mwao.
χεῖρας ἔχουσιν καὶ οὐ ψηλαφήσουσιν πόδας ἔχουσιν καὶ οὐ περιπατήσουσιν οὐ φωνήσουσιν ἐν τῷ λάρυγγι αὐτῶν
8 Wale wanao zitengeneza wanafanana nazo, vile vile yeyote anaye amini katika hizo.
ὅμοιοι αὐτοῖς γένοιντο οἱ ποιοῦντες αὐτὰ καὶ πάντες οἱ πεποιθότες ἐπ’ αὐτοῖς
9 Israeli, amini katika Yahwe; yeye ni msaada wako na ngao yako.
οἶκος Ισραηλ ἤλπισεν ἐπὶ κύριον βοηθὸς αὐτῶν καὶ ὑπερασπιστὴς αὐτῶν ἐστιν
10 Nyumba ya Haruni, amini katika Yahwe; yeye ni msaada wako na ngao yako.
οἶκος Ααρων ἤλπισεν ἐπὶ κύριον βοηθὸς αὐτῶν καὶ ὑπερασπιστὴς αὐτῶν ἐστιν
11 Ninyi mnao mheshumu Yahwe, mwamini yeye; yeye ni msaada wenu na ngao yenu.
οἱ φοβούμενοι τὸν κύριον ἤλπισαν ἐπὶ κύριον βοηθὸς αὐτῶν καὶ ὑπερασπιστὴς αὐτῶν ἐστιν
12 Yahwe hutukumbuka sisi na atatubariki; ataibariki familia ya Israeli; atabariki familia ya Haruni.
κύριος ἐμνήσθη ἡμῶν καὶ εὐλόγησεν ἡμᾶς εὐλόγησεν τὸν οἶκον Ισραηλ εὐλόγησεν τὸν οἶκον Ααρων
13 Atawabariki wale wanao muheshimu yeye, wote vijana na wazee.
εὐλόγησεν τοὺς φοβουμένους τὸν κύριον τοὺς μικροὺς μετὰ τῶν μεγάλων
14 Yahwe na awaongeze ninyi zaidi na zaidi, ninyi pamoja na watoto wenu.
προσθείη κύριος ἐφ’ ὑμᾶς ἐφ’ ὑμᾶς καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς ὑμῶν
15 Yahwe na awabariki, aliyeziumba mbingu na nchi.
εὐλογημένοι ὑμεῖς τῷ κυρίῳ τῷ ποιήσαντι τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν
16 Mbingu ni za Yahwe; lakini nchi amewapa wanadamu.
ὁ οὐρανὸς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ τῷ κυρίῳ τὴν δὲ γῆν ἔδωκεν τοῖς υἱοῖς τῶν ἀνθρώπων
17 Wafu hawamsifu Yahwe, wala wote washukao chini kwenye ukimya;
οὐχ οἱ νεκροὶ αἰνέσουσίν σε κύριε οὐδὲ πάντες οἱ καταβαίνοντες εἰς ᾅδου
18 bali tutamtukuza Yahwe sasa na hata milele. Msifuni Yahwe.
ἀλλ’ ἡμεῖς οἱ ζῶντες εὐλογήσομεν τὸν κύριον ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν καὶ ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος
